Branding

ruby
Avo.configure do |config|
  config.branding = {
    colors: {
      background: "248 246 242",
      100 => "#C5F1D4",
      400 => "#3CD070",
      500 => "#30A65A",
      600 => "#247D43",
    },
    chart_colors: ['#FFB435', "#FFA102", "#CC8102", '#FFB435', "#FFA102", "#CC8102"],
    logo: "/avo-assets/logo.png",
    logomark: "/avo-assets/logomark.png",
    placeholder: "/avo-assets/placeholder.svg",
    favicon: "/avo-assets/favicon.ico"
  }
end

Using the branding feature, you can easily change the look of your app. You tweak it inside your avo.rb initializer in the branding attribute. It takes a hash with a few properties.

Configure brand color

To customize the primary color of Avo, you must configure the colors key with four color variants. 100 for color hints, 500 for the base primary color, and 400 and 600 values for highlights.

ruby
Avo.configure do |config|
  config.branding = {
    colors: {
      background: "248 246 242",
      100 => "#C5F1D4",
      400 => "#3CD070",
      500 => "#30A65A",
      600 => "#247D43",
    }
  }
end

You may also customize the color of Avo's background using the background key.

INFO

The color format can be hex (starting with #) or rgb (three groups split by a space, not a comma).

Avo uses Tailwinds color system. You can generate your own using the tools below.

Here are a few for you to choose from.

ruby
config.branding = {
  colors: {
    # BLUE
    100 => "#CEE7F8",
    400 => "#399EE5",
    500 => "#0886DE",
    600 => "#066BB2",
    # RED
    100 => "#FACDD4",
    400 => "#F06A7D",
    500 => "#EB3851",
    600 => "#E60626",
    # GREEN
    100 => "#C5F1D4",
    400 => "#3CD070",
    500 => "#30A65A",
    600 => "#247D43",
    # ORANGE
    100 => "#FFECCC",
    400 => "#FFB435",
    500 => "#FFA102",
    600 => "#CC8102",
  }
}

Customize the chart colors

For your dashboard, you can further customize the colors of the charts. You can do that using the chart_colors option. Pass in an array of colors, and Avo will do the rest.

ruby
Avo.configure do |config|
  config.branding = {
    chart_colors: ['#FFB435', "#FFA102", "#CC8102", '#FFB435', "#FFA102", "#CC8102"],
  }
end

WARNING

The chart colors should be hex colors. They are forwarded to chart.js

We want to make it easy to change the logo for your app, so we added the logo and logomark options to the branding feature.

The logo should be the "big" logo you want to display on the desktop version of your app, and logomark should be a squared-aspect image that Avo displays on the mobile version.

Customize the missing image placeholder

When you view the data in the Index view in a grid, when the cover field does not have an image, an avocado is going to be displayed instead as a placeholder.

You might want to change that to something else using the placeholder option.

ruby
Avo.configure do |config|
  config.branding = {
    placeholder: "/YOUR_PLACEHOLDER_IMAGE.jpg",
  }
end

Customize the favicon

We want to make it easy to change the logo for your app, so we added the favicon option to the branding feature. Overwrite it using an .ico file.
